  1. A shopkeeper in Delhi buys goods worth ₹4,500 and sells them at a profit of 20%. What is the selling price?

    Answer: ₹5,400

    Selling price = Cost price × (1 + profit%) = 4500 × 1.20 = ₹5,400.

  2. The average score of 5 students in a Wipro aptitude test is 72. If a sixth student scores 90, what is the new average?

    Answer: 75

    Total of 5 students = 5 × 72 = 360. New total = 360 + 90 = 450. New average = 450 ÷ 6 = 75.

  3. A and B together can complete a project in 12 days. A alone can complete it in 18 days. In how many days can B alone complete the project?

    Answer: 36 days

    B's rate = (A+B's rate) − A's rate = 1/12 − 1/18 = 3/36 − 2/36 = 1/36. So B alone takes 36 days.

  4. If 40% of a number is 160, what is 25% of that number?

    Answer: 100

    Number = 160 ÷ 0.40 = 400. 25% of 400 = 100.

  5. The ratio of boys to girls in a TCS training batch is 3:2. If there are 30 boys, how many girls are there?

    Answer: 20

    Boys:Girls = 3:2. If boys = 30, then girls = (2/3) × 30 = 20.

  6. A train travels 300 km in 4 hours. What is its average speed in km/h?

    Answer: 75

    Speed = Distance ÷ Time = 300 ÷ 4 = 75 km/h.

  7. A sum of ₹8,000 is invested at 10% per annum simple interest for 3 years. What is the total amount at the end?

    Answer: ₹10,400

    SI = P×R×T/100 = 8000×10×3/100 = ₹2,400. Total = 8000 + 2400 = ₹10,400.

  8. A Concentrix employee earns ₹25,000 per month and spends 60% of her salary. How much does she save annually?

    Answer: ₹1,20,000

    Savings per month = 40% of 25,000 = ₹10,000. Annual savings = 10,000 × 12 = ₹1,20,000.

  9. Choose the word closest in meaning to 'PRAGMATIC':

    Answer: Practical

    'Pragmatic' means dealing with things sensibly and realistically. 'Practical' is the closest synonym.

  10. If the price of a laptop is reduced by 15% to ₹51,000, what was the original price?

    Answer: ₹60,000

    Original price × (1 − 0.15) = 51,000 → Original = 51,000 ÷ 0.85 = ₹60,000.

  11. Identify the error: 'The data which was collected by the research team are being analyzed.'

    Answer: are being analyzed

    'Data' is treated as singular in formal/corporate English. The verb should be 'is being analyzed', not 'are being analyzed'.

  12. In a group of 40 TCS applicants, the ratio of those who passed to those who failed is 3:1. How many applicants passed?

    Answer: 30

    Passed = 3 parts, Failed = 1 part, Total = 4 parts = 40. Each part = 10. Passed = 3 × 10 = 30.

  13. Select the correctly punctuated sentence:

    Answer: The manager said that the project would be delivered on Friday.

    Indirect speech does not require a comma before 'that'. Option C is correctly punctuated.

  14. Two numbers are in the ratio 5:7. If their sum is 144, what is the larger number?

    Answer: 84

    Total parts = 5 + 7 = 12. Each part = 144 ÷ 12 = 12. Larger number = 7 × 12 = 84.
